In the heart of a home steeped in tradition and warmth, there lies a timeless ritual that gathers the family, soothes the soul, and delights the senses. The quintessentially British afternoon tea is an event that signifies comfort, elegance, and familial ties.
Imagine the gentle clink of fine bone china, a tiered cake stand laden with the fruits of loving labour. Scones, their tops glazed to a golden perfection, nestle alongside dainty finger sandwiches with cucumber so crisp it whispers of English gardens. The pastries, adorned with glistening fruits and sweet creams, call to mind the joy of summer fetes.
This tableau is set against a backdrop of soft sunlight streaming through lace curtains, casting patterns of bygone elegance upon a table set with care and attention to detail. Each piece of crockery tells a story of heritage, of tea parties and celebrations, of moments shared over steaming cups and whispered secrets.
The afternoon tea is a bridge across generations. It is where grandmothers share tales of their youth, where mothers teach the art of baking to eager children, where fathers relax with the newspaper, and where laughter bubbles as freely as the champagne that sometimes accompanies this delightful repast.
This scene is a canvas of comfort, a reminder that in our fast-paced lives, there is still merit in pausing, in savouring the moment. It is a celebration of the ordinary made magnificent, an ode to the joy of giving and receiving hospitality, an acknowledgment of the beauty in tradition.
In homes across the land, from the rolling hills of the countryside to the bustling streets of the city, the afternoon tea is a cherished escape. It is a nod to the past and a toast to the future, an affirmation of the connections that bind us, and a testament to the simple pleasures that enrich our lives.
To share in this ritual is to partake in a legacy of comfort and joy. It is a dance of flavours and aromas, a symphony of warmth and love. It is, in every sense, the heart of the home, beating with the rhythm of shared stories, shared lives, and shared dreams.
And so, let us raise our teacups to the afternoon tea, to the traditions that endure, to the homes that welcome, and to the families that flourish within them. For in these moments of shared pleasure, we find the true essence of what it means to be home...
With warmest wishes,
Anna

Thank you so much for this glorious video. It reminded me of who I am deep inside and gave me hope again. 🙏🏻🌹
Glad you liked it! 🤗💐
Such a good thing to think about! Thank you!
A month has passed, just wanted you to re live that feeling!!! You are wonderful ❤❤❤
I love that feeling 💝
YES!! I feel it too, Pieces in the House!!!
I have recently found your videos. They are like a window to my soul. I have longed to have a beautiful home/garden to do tablescapes and such but...I will just have to settle for looking at pictures and watching your beautiful videos - all my favorite things - color, dishes, settings, flowers, music, food, EVERYTHING!
Dear Adella, thank you so much for your kind words :) This is great to hear that the videos bring you joy and maybe will inspire you too 🤗🌸💕🌷Wishing you all the beautiful tablescapes and gardens to enjoy :)☀️💐
Such delicate beauty. Such intricate designs. Real artists at work is a feast to watch!
This seems a part of heaven, where the redeemed will all be dear friends of one another and invite them over to lavish each other on the splendor.
Such an inspirational tale 😍💕💐Thank you for your beautiful words and happy to know that you liked the designs 🤗🌟🌺
I did not see one cup and saucer that I wouldn’t want in my own home! The flowers were breathtaking, and every vignette struck a cord of joy in my heart. You inspire! When my grandchildren come over, we have a candlelight tea in the stairwell that’s a little bit dark. What a glow in their eyes and mine!
Very happy you liked it! ☺️ Such a sweet story about you and your grandchildren 💕🫖🍰🏡
I'm gonna love this one! I already know!

Just crossed my feed today. Loving this video !!
This is great that you do!☺️🌟💐
Bardzo dziękuję za udostępnienie ❤. Ma pani cudny gust, wszystkie filmy są cudne, absolutnie wszystkie. Mam z czego czerpać inspiracje, na pewno nie dokładnie ale zawsze jakaś podpowiedź. ❤😘
Dear Teresa, thank you so much for your compliment and sweet comments ☺️🌸🌷💕 Very glad if it brings you some inspiration, it inspires to create more :) Dziękuję 🤗🪴
Faktycznie muzyka lekko się zmieniła .😉 Ale i tak ta porcelana jest przecudnej urody. ❤ Z takich filiżanek nawet woda z kranu miała by smak ambrozji.🙂 Cuda, cudeńka, serwetki, łyżeczki ,piękne stoły i cała sceneria. No po prostu cudo.
Yes, this music helps to avoid advertising that youtube otherwise puts on it. Hope it won't change the experience too much ☺️ Thank you for your kind words, very happy that you enjoy the video 🌷💕🌸
Absolutely gorgeous. I found this accidentally and subscribed. The music adds so much. Thank 😊❤
Happy to know that you have enjoyed it 🤗💐🌼
Thanks so much for bringing this video back quintessential homes, but I noticed you changed the music. The original music was so much more soothing and relaxing, which blended so well with amazing tea cups, teapots, dessert trays, and flower arrangements. Can you bring the original music back?
Sorry, this was the reason it was taken down, because of the music - there is no license available to purchase in order to play it in this way. As the channel is not monetised, it is not possible to try to negotiate it directly with the authors. Apologies, that it had to be changed 🌸☀️
@Sjirra ah sorry, unfortunately not... but if it would help, they were all licensed via Epidemic Sound and found under Classical-Instrumental music search/category, I think they have a free trial too. Thank you for understanding 🤗
This is soooo eloquent! Right up my alley!! Love this!!! ❤
You did a FABULOUS job!! Gorgeous!! 🏆✨️🏆✨️🏆 🎉🪻
Ah so great to hear that! 🤗🌟Thank you for your sweet words :) Happy you love it 🫖🍰💐
Beautiful ❤️😘
Thank you for your comments 💐🤗🌸
Спасибо! Прекрасная умиротворяющая музыка и роскошные фото, подписалась на ваш канал и смотрю с удовольствием 🌷🌷🌷
Thank you so much for your beautiful words! ☺️🌸💐 It inspires to create more 🤗🌟🎁
It really is a glorious video, though I am not the sort of person to use that word !!! The music is perfectly suited aswell.
Thank you for your kind and glorious comment 😊💐 Very happy you have enjoyed the tea :)🫖🍰
I LOVE IT🎉😊❤
This is great that you do! :)🤗🌟🌸🫖

Boa noite
Hello, we would love to feature your gorgeous video clip on our vintage cake stand website. We will credit you of course. Is that possible at all? Thanks in advance, Alison
Hello Alison,
Thank you for your interest, I believe it can be embedded into a website just like any other TH-cam video. If that is what you mean, then please feel free to do so 😊 It is my pleasure 🍰🫖
Kind regards, Anna
@@quintessentialhome you are absolutely amazing!!!! thank you SO much. We will add your credits for any videos used. Your work is true art xxx
@VintageCakeStandCo thank you! Wishing you a great success with your business! 🍰🤗💕✨
Guests may dress in Victorian attire~
Beautiful idea :)👗🫖🍰🌸😊
The video is beautiful but please change the music back to how it was before, the inspiration is lost
☺️ Unfortunately it is not possible without constantly paying its authors for it and negotiating the license deal. And this channel is not monetised. Sorry it had to be changed.
It's nice but too many ads. 1 every not even 2 minutes of playing, making it not enjoyable!! I feel sorry but had to unsave it!!
There is no ads at all as the channel is demonetised. This is a very strange comment to leave...
